The current lithium production based on the three types of resources decreases in the order of brine-type (∼64%), pegmatite-type (∼29%), and clay-type (∼7%). Among these, brines and several ores (e.g., spodumene, lepidolite) were considered valuable for Li extraction due to the economic enrichment of lithium.
Extraction of lithium from primary resources 3.1. Lithium extraction from minerals/clays Lithium is extracted from its minerals by two processes — acid and alkaline though chlorination is also attempted in some cases. Averill and Olson (1978) have reviewed methods and techniques for the extraction of lithium from ores, brines and clays.
Lithium (Li) is the lowest density metal, and therefore an optimal element in most battery designs1,2. With the increasing demand for Li, metallurgical techniques using excess acid leaching of mineral ores are common. However, these techniques are limited by complex, multi-step processes with adverse environmental impacts caused by secondary waste streams1,3. …

Lithium production in China mainly depends on hard rock lithium ores, which has a defect in resources, environment, and economy compared with extracting lithium from brine. This paper focuses on the research progress of extracting lithium from spodumene, lepidolite, petalite, and zinnwaldite by acid, alkali, salt roasting, and chlorination methods, and analyzes the …
Thus, lithium ores could be considered as alternative resources once again. Among the commercially practicable sources of lithium, spodumene is the mineral that attracts the most interest and various processes for recovering the lithium values from spodumene ore have been proposed. In a number of these processes, only two processes have been ...
